Stream Lorenzo Senni’s awe-inspiring Warp debut, Persona

Trance-obsessed Italian artist Lorenzi Senni has just released Persona, his debut EP for Warp Records.

The six-track set is a major step for Senni, who has previously deconstructed dance music’s most maligned genre on 2012’s Quantum Jelly album for Editions Mego and 2014’s Superimpositions EP on Boomkat Editions.

He also explains how on Persona, chords – not arpeggios – take the lead, with the influences of Japanese music, cyberpunk and anime at the forefront of the record’s striking cover by London-based artist Ed Atkins.
